Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3467403A1] A thermomagnetic cycle device includes: a magneto-caloric element (12); a magnetic field modulation device (13) that modulates an external magnetic field applied to the magneto-caloric element; a heat transport device (14) that generates a both-way flow of heat transport medium; a phase controller (71, 72, 571, 572) that adjusts a phase difference between a magnetic field phase of change in the external magnetic field generated by the magnetic field modulation device and a flow phase of the both-way flow generated by the heat transport device; and a control device (18) that controls the phase controller. The control device includes: a phase acquisition part (18a, 918b, A18b) that acquires the flow phase of the both-way flow of the heat transport medium or a reaction phase represented by change in heat emitted or absorbed by the magneto-caloric element; and a control part (18c, 918c) that controls the phase controller based on the flow phase or the reaction phase.
